Cave seems to be going a little crazy with their shooter releases, as they show off yet another new title in their flagship franchise, DoDonPachi. DoDonPachi Blissfull Death is one of three DoDonPachi titles planned for this year, and this one is for the iPhone and iPod Touch handheld devices.

The debut trailer shows of a ton of gameplay footage and from what I can see here, the gameplay looks to be typical DoDonPachi. It looks to have the typical insane bullet hell gameplay, and the trailer even shows off some massive boss battles and bits of the artwork.

DoDonPachi Blissful Death is expected to hit the App Store sometime in February.

There are only a few days until Final Fantasy XIII-2 is released in stores, four to be exact. But that doesn’t mean that Square Enix is going to stop releasing trailers to help sway any indecision you may have left about picking up this title when it is released on January 31st.

Today Square Enix has released the trailer below which is called the “Clash of Time” which shows us various battles including demonstrating some of the monsters you can fight alongside, cinematic actions as well as Lightning and Caius fighting it out. So, if you could pick any monster to fight alongside in FFXIII-2, what would it be? I’d have to say that the Chocobo they show in the video would delight many fans.

Resident Evil: Revelations’ price dropped to $40

When the price was announced for Resident Evil: Revelations most people were surprised because it would end up being the most expensive Nintendo 3DS game of all time as it was expected to be sold at $49.99. The reason for the more expensive price tag was supposed to be the fact that the game was going to be on a 4GB cartridge rather than the standard 2GB cartridge.

It seems that the game will be a bit cheaper than originally expected as Capcom’s Brett Elston has announced to the world that after spending “weeks of effort” Capcom has been able to drop the price down to the more tolerable $39.99 which is standard for the Nintendo 3DS.

KONAMI have announced that their Facebook page has made it to the 5 million “likes” mark, and to celebrate this social media milestone, Cristiano Ronaldo has recorded a message for the Facebook fans.

Ronaldo, who became the face of the PES series last year, dedicated a special message to the 5 million followers, in addition to a competition also being announced in which 5 lucky fans will win a shirt signed by the Real Madrid superstar.

The milestone will be highly appreciated by KONAMI who have really been pushing the social media side of gaming. KONAMI established the Social & Online Media Department early last year with just 1.6 million Facebook fans at the time. The division has been responsible for a 600 percent increase in monthly active users and also a 1,300 percent increase in monthly page views over the course of the past year.

The Pro Evolution Soccer Facebook page can be found at www.facebook.com/PES.

PlayStation Vita 3G Launch Bundle announced, includes $55 worth of free content

A short while ago there was news that the 3G/WiFi version of the PlayStation Vita was canceled by online retailer and it seems that may have been a precursor for what was just announced today. The 3G version of the PlayStation Vita is actually now being given a launch bundle that not only is provided for the same price but also comes with a number of bonus goodies.

The 3G version will now be launched with a 8GB memory card that is $30 in value, an AT&T DataConnect Session Pass and an unnamed PlayStation Network game. The model is available for pre-order now at Amazon. It is interesting to see Sony create this bundle themselves, though this certainly does make the 3G version look a bit better than the original $250 WiFi only model.

Prototype 2 Best Buy pre-order bonus provides the Hardened Steel upgrade

Those who feel like they won’t be tough enough to face off against Blackwatch in Prototype 2 may want to pre-order the game from Best Buy because their pre-order bonus seems to make you completely invincible whenever you are in a military vehicle. I mean, sure you can tear people apart and absorb them but why not just run them over in a tank like in every other game right?

Either way, you can check out the video below where you can see Heller and his tank take tons of damage and keep going while also destroying everything in sight. Doesn’t quite have the same impact as destroying them with your own hands however.

Kindgoms of Amalur: Reckoning online pass locks full questline

In what has become a very disturbing trend, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning’s online pass will be locking out full story content from those who do not happen to pick up the game brand new or rent the title. To be more specific, the online pass for Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning locks out the entire questline for the House of Valor faction.

The insert shown to the right shows that online pass owners will have access to “seven additional player quests” through the House of Valor faction questline, meaning that without the pass those quests are lost forever. This was shown in recent titles such as RAGE and Batman: Arkham City where no multiplayer did not hold back the companies from hiding content behind online pass systems…

Persona 4 based fighting game hits Japanese arcades in March

Japanese gamers may be expecting Arc System Works’ Persona 4 based fighting game, Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena to be released to consoles sometime in the summer, however they won’t have to wait that long because Andriasang is reporting that the game will be available in Japanese arcades in “early March.”

This news comes Arc System Works themselves, so expect to see lots of Japanese gamers crowding arcades once gain to get an early chance to play this fighting game before it shows up for home purchase. Too bad the arcade scene in North America is pretty much dead, as it would be interesting to see arcade cabinets for these games being brought over for arcades in America as well.

… And those fighters are some very Capcom and Namco associated characters. The moment that you hear who they are, you will immediately think exactly the same thing. Both of these characters show a significant relevance to each company, even if they are not from the two series of fighters that are duking it out.

These two new characters? These iconic mascots? They are none other than Megaman (*Squee*) and Pac-Man! How iconic are these characters? If you answered with ‘The Most’ – then you would indeed be correct.

As a HUGE Megaman fan myself, I must say that grabbing a Playstation 3 is certainly high up on my list of things to do right now. So be sure to check out the trailer embedded below for more details.
